How to Pay

Fees are payable in advance. We accept payment by Visa, MasterCard (credit or debit). We do not accept AMEX, Diners or Maestro cards. You can also pay by GBP cheque/bank draft or by bank transfer. You need to register to obtain an invoice or pay by credit/debit card. The invoice will provide all the information you need to pay by bank transfer. Click the Green Register Button at the top of this page to access our shop.

If payment is made by bank transfer we must receive a copy of the bank transfer document as proof of payment by the payment deadline to ensure that authors’ papers are included in the conference proceedings. Failure to email or fax a copy to us will also mean that the late payment fee will apply (for earlybird payments).

Payment Deadlines

Earlybird fees must reach us no later than 17th August 2017.To ensure publication of papers, author payments must reach us no later than 21st September 2017.Other payments should reach us no later than 12th October 2017.Registrations can still be made after this date, provided payment is received by credit/debit card at the time of booking.

Participants arriving at the conference without having pre-registered are welcome subject to availability. Payment will be required on arrival, and will be subject to a late registration surcharge of £100 on the relevant fee.

Changes and Amendments

Before finally submitting your registration, please check your order carefully as changes made to bookings after an invoice has been raised will be subject to an administration charge of £25 per change made. If you do notice that you have made a mistake please notify us by email so that we can help you before raising your invoice. All registration queries should be sent to Gabi Campan

Cancellations

Earlybird condition

In order to obtain the Earlybird rate, we must be in receipt of your full conference registration fee by the published Earlybird date. Although we endeavor to notify paper acceptance before this date, external factors may prevent this. In the event of an author subsequently failing to have a paper accepted for the conference, a refund can be made (cancellation charges apply).

Note to Authors

In order to have your paper published in the conference proceedings the final date for receipt of authors’ payment is 21st September 2017. Due to the large number of papers expected for this conference, the committee prefers that an author presents only one paper. However, if multiple papers are accepted for publication and presentation, each paper requires a registration fee.

Conference proceedings

Conference proceedings are supplied electronically to participants. You can choose to reserve a hard copy in advance at the special price for collection at the conference (see above).
